You can really feel the emotion coming from Celine. - dilinikaushalya-52963 - 4 November 2023
If you're ALWAYS going to love the dead man, stay single forever!
The movie was actually nice until the dialogue "I'll always love him, I'll always miss him" about the dead boyfriend. Even for a movie that's a very selfish message you are sending out to the audience. If she's ALWAYS going to love and miss the dead man, such people should actually stay single rather than ruining another person's life. Do you think it's reasonable for the new person to accept you by being your 2nd choice; 2nd to a dead lover? If it's a parent or a child, who's dead it would be acceptable to say 'ALWAYS'. But if it's a dead lover or even a broken up lover, if you haven't completely let go of them and healed but still holding onto them, stay single until you are ready for a fresh start. Even in the movie it would have been better if it showed that she is completely healed and ready for a fresh start with this new guy rather than making him look like he is her backup plan. - madanmarwah - 27 September 2023
One more romantic story with a little diffence
One more romantic movie for those who love such films. The ad itself makes it clear that the heroine is grieving her dead lover and sends text messages to his phone which is now with somebody else. The receiver of these messages is a young man who doesn't react normally but plays along. This doesn't appear plausible in present times but is acceptable in a movie about a deeply romantic couple. So anyone seeing the movie cannot say that the plot line is a surprise. The movie definitely has its flaws but those need to be ignored if one needs to flow with the narrative with a dialogue like " love makes a fool of everyone ". Logic just can't be applied to the basic premise of the love sick heroine Mira Ray ( Priyanka Chopra Jonas) sending text messages to her dead lover's phone. She designs children's books. The guy receiving these messages is Rob Burns ( Sam Heughan ), a music critic who has been assigned to interview celebrity Céline Dion ( an impressive appearance as herself.) The movie should satisfy lovers of soft romantic dramas and directorJim Strouse has curated the plot for such audiences. Others may find it a difficult watch. There are two highlights . One, acting of Priyanka who makes her character relatable and the movie watchable. She has a penchant for asking people the question " Would you rather........?" which is amusing. Two, a few melodious songs sung by Celine Dion which provide old world charm. A line I liked is said by the friendly bartender ( Aren't they all ?") He says "Grieving takes time , one day the ice thickens and can support your weight."
